Super All-around Point Guard

Ten years ago, countless people were looking forward to the day when James and Anthony would meet in the Finals, just like they were looking forward to Olajuwon's Rockets and Michael Jordan's Bulls meeting in the playoffs, a duel between two talented players of the same generation. It's obviously very interesting.

Ten years later, the league exceeded everyone's expectations. Anthony did not continue to be on par with James. Instead, a new generation of stars such as Durant, Stephen Curry, and Xie Chen appeared, and the world became theirs.

Although it was thanks to Xie Chen's light that he got to where he is today, Anthony still had to prove himself when facing his friend and lifelong enemy James. Anthony had brotherly love for James, but also jealousy between rivals. He didn't want to spend his whole life with James. Being pushed down by James, I don’t want to be a loser for the rest of my life.

James wanted to win this game very much. He wanted to defeat Xie Chen two times in a row, so he fought hard until the end. Even if he scored 50 points, he still didn't feel tired. But every time James chased 8 points, Anthony would be very ruthless. The ground once again expanded the point difference to double digits, and Anthony used these two responses to express his attitude.

"The Cavaliers have no chance in this game." Popovich predicted that the Cavaliers and Knicks would tie one to one.

Sure enough, as Anthony responded to the ball several times and as James's physical strength declined and his shooting percentage decreased, he could no longer change the trend of the game.

The Knicks led all the way to the end and defeated the Cavaliers on the road, rewriting the big score to a one-to-one tie!

"Well done, guys!" Fisher, who led the team to the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in his career, was very excited. After the game, he high-fived the players one by one, as if he was not a coach at the moment, but just a substitute player who had no chance to play. That’s all.

The original goal of the Knicks was to win a game on the road. Now that it has been successfully completed, all the players are relaxed and they will return to their home court for the next two games. Although the Knicks' home winning rate this season is not as good as the Warriors As abnormal as the Spurs, the winning rate is still significantly higher than the away winning rate, especially in the playoffs, they have never lost at home!

But for the Cavaliers' players, it's not that easy.

"We are back on the same starting line again. This series may be the most difficult challenge I have ever encountered in my career." James dragged his tired body out of the field, feeling depressed and without any communication with his teammates and coaches.

James finally broke his single-game scoring record in the playoffs, scored a 50+ performance, and played a Kobe-style game of personal heroism, but the team lost.

After the two sides tied at one to one, the media and netizens greatly improved the Knicks' winning rate. In this game, the Knicks' performance was so good that their performance in the first two quarters was even noticeable. The momentum that only a championship team can have, especially Derrick Williams' performance, is even more eye-catching. In this battle, he gained a lot of fans.

After returning to the locker room, Williams was still excited. Although he performed well, his demands on himself became higher. He said to Xie Chen: "Thank you, should I continue to lose weight in the past two days?" Increase speed? When I played fast break today, I felt that my speed was not fast enough!"

After hearing this, Anthony laughed and said: "Williams, you are going to dunk the Cavaliers' basket tonight, why are you not satisfied?"

Xie Chen was quite happy that Williams had such an outstanding performance. Not only was he not proud, but he hoped to make himself better. This kind of never-satisfied thought will make a person keep improving, which is a good thing.

Williams continued to ask Xie Chen and Anthony: "Who do you think is faster between Iguodala and I? If I catch the ball and go on a fast break, can he catch up and block me?"

Both of them laughed. Williams was really confident this time, and now he started thinking about the next finals.

Fisher reminded: "Williams, don't think about Iguodala for now. The Cavaliers are still a difficulty for us, and we have to take it seriously."

Xie Chen feels that Fisher's overly cautious attitude is not good, or that there are advantages and disadvantages, and the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. If it is a team like the Warriors that has set a record in the regular season, it requires humility and caution when playing against any team. They are all correct, but the Knicks are different. They are always the eighth team in the Eastern Conference. Everyone does not forget this when they play. They already have a sense of inferiority when they see their opponents, and their self-confidence collapses when they lose. So Xie Chen actually likes to see his teammates so confident.

Xie Chen interjected: "Now we have tied the score 1-1 in the away game. Cameron and I are confident that we will win the next two home games, so brothers, please remember, we are not ranked eighth. Team, but a team that will continue to create eight miracles!"

…

After the Eastern Conference Finals, everyone's focus shifted to the Western Conference Finals. The Spurs defeated the Warriors in the first away game. This was a huge blow to the Warriors. This second game must be won. If they lose two consecutive home games, If we lose, the series will really be over.

So everyone saw the more focused Warriors in this game. Popovich knew that it would be difficult to win again, so when the Warriors scored the first three-pointer, Popovich immediately called He called a timeout and scolded the Spurs' starting five. In fact, he was just scolding Danny Green. The timeout was called less than a minute into the game. Except for the old guy Popovich, there was no one else. The purpose of the scolding was just to Let all of them pay attention, because it is impossible for the Warriors to lose this game. If they want to win against them, they must be more focused than them.

However, even if Popovich knows how to deploy troops and figure out the players' psychology, there are some things that the Warriors are unable to prevent as a coach.

The Warriors, especially Stephen Curry, played very smartly in this game. If you don't let me shoot three-pointers, I won't shoot three-pointers at all. At least I won't force three-pointers. I will keep breaking through for layups and passing the ball. Klay Thompson and Barnes kept hitting three-pointers, and even Draymond Green also hit three-pointers one after another.

Only Danny Green on the Spurs can respond in three-pointers. Aldridge's mid-range shooting percentage is not bad, but it is still a bit reluctant to play Draymond Green in the low post. Draymond Green is physically strong and can hit people very hard. He is powerful and has a lot of little moves. He also knows how to put pressure on referees, making it difficult for the more gentlemanly Aldridge to play. Leonard is still the most critical figure for the Spurs. When the team cannot score, he always Being able to stand up and play unreasonable basketball like a superstar and then score. It's hard to imagine what Leonard would have done if he wasn't in the Spurs.

In the end, the Warriors, like the Knicks, also led their opponents by a large margin and tied the score at one to one.

The results of the Eastern Conference Finals and the Western Conference Finals are the same. It seems that it will take more than six games to decide the result.

…

The Knicks team set off back to New York early the next morning, and the Cavaliers also had to pack their bags and follow them to play two games on the Knicks' territory. In these two games, everyone thought that the Knicks could win at least one game. If two If they win at home, the Cavaliers will become the lagging team. In that case, they will be in danger.

Back in New York, Xie Chen should have been actively preparing for the third game against the Cavaliers in the past two days and training with his teammates every day. However, Xie Chen could not devote all his time to the team and teammates. He had to worry about his own health. Wife and soon-to-be-born child.

In less than a month, just over half a month, Xie Chen will be a father.

This is an unsettling experience for any man. During the period when Katie was pregnant, Xie Chen had to go to various cities to play games every day and did not have much time to accompany Katie. This made Xie Chen I feel very guilty for my wife, but Katie loves Xie Chen deeply and has no complaints about Xie Chen. Moreover, as long as the Knicks have a game, they will never fall behind in every game. Katie has a big belly and cannot be like others. The wives of football stars also appeared at the scene to cheer for their husbands, which is also Katie's regret.

The entire Knicks team knew about the situation at Xie Chen's home. Although Xie Chen was absent from the team's training that day, the coaching staff and teammates did not blame Xie Chen.

Katie's figure has gone out of shape, but her appearance is still so beautiful that people are addicted to it. Some beauties look stunning at first sight, but after seeing too much, they feel ordinary, while some beauties are not impressive no matter how long you look at them. If you get tired of it, Katie falls into the latter category. Her beauty is not inferior to any other female star who becomes famous by her appearance.

Katie and Xie Chen were sitting on the 4,500-foot balcony to bask in the sun. In the past, Katie was alone. Now with Xie Chen's company, Katie felt even happier. Although she wanted Xie Chen to accompany her like this all the time, she still He said to Xie Chen: "You don't need to accompany me, my dear, it doesn't matter to me. Now is the most important moment of the game. You should go to the gym to train with your teammates. They need you more."

Xie Chen held Katie's white tender hand and shook his head: "Even if I win the next two games, I still have to go to Cleveland again, and if I reach the finals, I may spend less time with you. Less, now, you are the most important.”

What Katie wanted to say, Xie Chen continued: "Don't worry, the next two home games will not be as difficult as the away games. I am confident that I can win both games. I am not the only leader of the team. With Anthony in charge, it will be great." enough."

Katie saw that Xie Chen was so determined to accompany her, so she didn't say anything. She snuggled on Xie Chen's shoulder, hoping that this moment would last longer. No one could have imagined that the overbearing person before marriage would make it difficult for people to sleep in and out of bed. The surrendered goddess turned into such a little woman after marriage.

Xie Chen felt Katie's love for him, and he also knew that Katie would pay attention to every one of his games.

"It seems that I have to try to control my emotions during the game, because if I get angry, it will also affect my wife who is watching the game." Xie Chen thought to himself as he stroked Katie's silky hair.

Fortunately, JR Smith has been defeated by Xie Chen, and Dellavedova does not dare to make trouble against Xie Chen. This series should not be too explosive. There are only a few villains in the Cavaliers, except for the two of them. Maybe there’s only one Tristan Thompson…

New York, Madison Square Garden has not had a performance in the Eastern Conference Finals for too long. The lack of home court advantage has caused New York fans to suffer. No matter who they are playing, they must start with their opponents. As fans, they have to wait. It was too painful to watch two games live.

As an eighth-seeded team, Knicks fans are very satisfied with being able to reach the Eastern Conference finals, and now they have a draw, which means they have a high probability of advancing to the finals!

People always look forward to a miracle. Who says the Knicks can't win the Eastern Conference championship as the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference? It’s not like they haven’t done it before!

On the day of the game, the excitement at Madison Square Garden was no less intense than at Cleveland's home court. When James came on the court, the Knicks fans didn't give him any face, and the whole place booed. It seemed that the Knicks fans were better than the Cavaliers fans. The fans are much wilder.

"Thank you, teach them a lesson!" After Xie Chen appeared, many people started shouting at Xie Chen.

On the sidelines, a "female fan" also joined the warm atmosphere. She stood in the VIP seats and shouted for the Knicks like everyone else. This "female fan" also appeared at Quicken Loans Arena in the first two games. She That's Kate Upton.

Xie Chen noticed this woman and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that she, a big star, would stop working and pursue basketball.

Before the game, the players on both sides were still very serious and took this game very seriously. The Knicks had no burden for this game. Now the scores are tied one to one. This is the Knicks' home court. Even if they lose this game, they will lose the next one. It's still their home court. For the Cavaliers, the psychological pressure is great.

James scored 50 points in the last game but didn't win. He was very angry. He has been unhappy for the past two days. He only lost one game in the series, but he took it so seriously. It also made Irving and Love see James's attitude towards this series. Attention to competition.

Tonight, the Knicks will face a group of "angry knights."

James still scored points in the opening game like he did in the last game, as if he was getting old if he didn't work hard. He led the team to lead the score as soon as he came up. He had been passive in the last game, making it very difficult for the Cavaliers to chase points. This game, they have to Switch roles.

Seeing how crazy the knight was, the first person to make a move was not Xie Chen, but Anthony.

Anthony first scored 4 points in a row to maintain the situation, and then quickly hit a three-pointer, which surprised everyone.

In the first two games, Anthony did not perform particularly amazingly, but tonight, it looks different.

Faced with Anthony's tough response, James didn't take it to heart at all: "Come on, Cameron, you and Xie come together, it's time for us to have a decent showdown!"
